Make sure you have every scrap of paper or electronic correspondence showing that the debt is completely paid off.

A question you may encounter is whether the only reason you took action to resolve the tax issue was the fact that you had to get a security clearance.

I don’t think it is a show-stopper, but there are certain situations it might be an issue. Are you applying for a direct-hire government position? They might have “suitability” concerns not directly related to the clearance. Is the position involved with contracting or budgeting or something like that? Could be a higher standard. But it sounds like you found the issue on your own, resolved it in a timely manner, and there is no outstanding debt.

So I think for the majority of cases, it should not be a problem.

Aha, I see what you mean. I think you will be OK but it will likely attract some attention. Its good that you have all the records handy.
